FOSSASIA Members

Welcome to FOSSASIA! We are happy to welcome new contributors and community developers to our GitHub organization.

Once the issue has been submitted:

• A GitHub Action will process your request.

  • Your FOSSASIA organization membership status

4. Continue with Step 4 to make your membership public.

You must accept the invitation before you can make your organization membership public.

Step 4: Make Your FOSSASIA Membership Public
